当年轩辕黄帝要选十二动物担任宫廷卫士，猫托老鼠报名，老鼠给忘了，结果猫没有选上，从此与鼠结下冤家。
大象也来参赛，被老鼠钻进鼻子，给赶跑了，其余的动物，原本推牛为首，老鼠却窜到牛背上，猪也跟着起哄 ，于是老鼠排第一，猪排最后。
虎和龙不服，被封为山中之王和海中之王，排在鼠和牛的后面。
兔子又不服，和龙赛跑，结果排在了龙的前面。
狗又不平，一气之下咬了兔子，为此被罚在了倒数第二。蛇、马、羊、猴、鸡也经过一番较量，一一排定了位置，最后形成了鼠、牛、虎、兔、龙、蛇、马、羊、猴、鸡、狗、猪的顺序。
扩展资料：
古时候，为了让贫民百姓也能记住自己出生的年号，就使用了最简单的动物纪年法，后来称其为“生肖年”。（生肖：“生”出生；“肖”相似、相像）
十二生肖的起源很早，考古发现的战国末期睡虎地秦简与放马滩秦简《日书》中已经出现配有干支的十二兽，
在兽名、干支排列上与后世十二生肖总体相似,其使用方法、占卜逻辑也与后世生肖相类，由此可推测睡虎地秦简与放马滩秦简《日书》中出现的配有干支的十二兽应是后世十二生肖的雏形。
十二生肖纪年始于东汉时期。
《北史·宇文护传》中，记载了宇文护的母亲写给他的一封信，信中说：“昔在武川镇生汝兄弟，大者属鼠，次者属兔，汝身属蛇”。表明当时民间已有12生肖的用法了。
我国古籍中记载，古代的中原地区，最初使用的是“干支纪年法”，即用10个天干符号，相配合来纪年。同时，也有采用地支配合十二种动物来简单纪年。
到隋朝时中原历法传至中国西北地区的游牧民族，他们在历法的纪年上仅吸收了十二种动物纪年法。
因此才有《唐书》中记载：“黠戛斯国以十二物纪年，如岁在寅，则曰虎年”。
另外，《宋史·吐蕃传》中也记载说，吐蕃首领在叙事时，以物纪年，所谓“道旧事则数十二辰属日，兔年如此，马年如此”。
正像清代赵翼在《陔余丛考》中指出的那样，“盖北俗初无所谓子丑寅卯之十二辰，但以鼠牛虎兔之类分纪岁时，浸寻流传于中国，遂相沿不废耳”。
这种关于12生肖来历的解释，已经被许多人认可。

As a reward, the Buddha gave each animal a year in the cycle and declared that anyone born in that year would resemble the animal in some way. In addition, each two hours of the day is also governed by one animal. The hours of 11pm to 1:00 am is by Rat, from 1 am to 3 am by Ox and so on. Six elements of the planet: wood, fire, air, water, gold and earth are also integrated into the animalZodiacsigns。
